Even though the technology is currently under development, it still holds huge potential as it can be adapted to other media like smartphones, tablets, monitors, and movie screens as well.

Recognizing the potential this market holds, electronic goods giants like Samsung, Toshiba, and LG have already launched their televisions in the market. Dolby Labs has partnered with electronics giant such as Philips to provide glasses-free 3D solutions for content providers. The 8K resolution televisions are four times the resolution of a 4K TV that have recently penetrated the market. However the demand will not be as high as expected due to its cost that cannot fit in a budget of many consumers, thereby limiting the growth of the market.

The household segment is expected to score a high CAGR over the forecast period as the demand for glasses-free 3D TV is set to increase.

The global glasses-free 3D TV market is geographically segmented into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and Rest of the World. As most of the electronic goods manufacturers have their base in Asia Pacific, this region is set to prosper and lead the market during the forecast period. Advanced technology, government initiatives, and large consumer base are projected to drive the market for glasses-free 3D TV. North America is another promising region for market growth as high disposable income and technological advancements will propel the demand for glasses-free 3D TV.
